Abstract

An eyelid treatment system can include a contact lens that can include an inner concave surface and an outer convex surface opposite the inner concave surface. The contact lens can be configured to be placed on an eyeball of a subject. The eyelid treatment system can include a light source optically coupled to the contact lens. The light source can be configured to deliver light to an inner surface of an eyelid of the subject when the contact lens is placed on the eyeball. The inner concave surface can be configured to at least partially block light from being transmitted through the inner concave surface, such that the light propagates in a direction away from the eyeball of the subject. The light from the light source can be configured to reduce eyelid inflammation.
